Manually enter email in user profile

We are new to Mixpanel and have an application where many users have already created an account. Since their credentials are saved, they aren’t required to login but instead are redirected straight to their account. The mixpanel code in our application currently grabs the users email on signup or login and sends it to Mixpanel. Is there a way to manually enter an email in a user’s profile?

Also, I’d like to mention a best practice here in regards to setting people properties. We usually encourage setting these properties like email upon sign up or when that information is available. Then, when the user is authenticated and identified in the user journey, you can call mixpanel.people.set() (syntax varies depending on which SDK you are using) to set this and any other properties you would like on the profile. More information on this can be found here: https://help.mixpanel.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004501966#user-profile-properties.
